If I'm Sony, I continue to ride this wave of Xbox negativity tbh. Not sure how... but they good at that ooof.

I'm seeing the Starfield comments on twatter. Mostly lol 30fps and still some bots think it will be 60.. going to be a loooooooong Summer.

Good to know it's only a very small vocal minority, just keep that in mind. Not damage control at all. :)

I have no idea why people think Starfield would be locked to 30 fps on launch. While there is an interview with Todd Howard from like 2 years ago where he said he thought 30 fps was sufficient for their style of games, and the E3 gameplay last year had some drops below 30 fps when Digital Foundry ran it through their testing software, I feel like Bethesda knows that in 2023 you need to have both a 30 fps fidelity mode and a 60 fps performance mode, with an additional balanced mode designed for VRR monitors being preferred. If they didn't know that before now, they certainly know it after seeing this immense Redfall 30 fps backlash, and they have 5 months now before launch in September to make sure that there is an optional 60 fps performance mode running at a lower resolution.
